Question:

I have been trying to implement highlighting on the menudrawer similar to YouTube/Beautiful Widget app, but i have no clue to how is should approach the problem.

below i am giving a sample to my aprproche which i am not sure, if its the correct way to implement something like this:

This is a Menu drawer Adaptervew.click lisner i created:

 private AdapterView.OnItemClickListener mItemClickListener = new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position,
                    long id) {

            mPreviousView=mActiveView;
            mActiveView=view;
            mActivePosition = position;
         //   mDrawer.setActiveView(view, position);
            TextView txtview=(TextView)mActiveView;
            txtview.setBackgroundResource( R.drawable.abs__cab_background_top_holo_dark);
           // mDrawer.closeMenu();
        }
    };

So basically what i am trying to do here is to use a .9 image on the current selected view!

What i want to know is is there a more systematic or better approach to do the same!

Solution

  • You can give it a try:

    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
    view.setSelectionHandlerColorResource(Set your color here);
}
